    precision rifles... show em

    Built this rifle about 7 mos ago and have had it out to 980yds so far. I can hit my 13" gong at 800 yds with boring consistency. This rifle will shoot 1/4 MOA @ 200 yds all day long and for everything I've read about Mausers ( especially one in this previous condition) that is "impossible". I...

    Mosin Bolt not wanting to lock down

    Re: Mosin Bolt not wanting to lock down I meant disassembleing the bolt and cleaning it, but if that's done I'd try different ammo for a few rounds while your headspace gauge is on order.

    Re: 7.62x54R vs 1"steel I just bought 100rds of Privi 182gr FMJBT (brass reloadable), I really like it though kind of spendy for target ammo.

    M44 scout

    Re: M44 scout Thanks, it's actually pretty light with the wood stock, the sun shade makes the scope HUGE. I'm sure it will still evolve.

    M44 scout

    Re: M44 scout Had a friend tig my muzzle brake for me, tamed the recoil quite a bit but the percusive force beats you up if you're not the shooter.

    M44 scout
